Maximize Fuel Efficiency

Thanks to the advanced plug-in hybrid power in the 2022 Toyota Prius Prime, you can make it longer on a single battery charge. Of course, when the time comes, the traditional hybrid and gas-powered engines take over. You get a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with EC, ECO, and Power modes. It features intelligent variable valve timing and is paired with a continuously variable electronically controlled transmission. Enjoy an impressive 121 horsepower as well for that speed you want while on the highway or other fast-paced roadways.

Hybrid power comes from a lithium-ion battery and a permanent magnet AC synchronous motor. With plug-in technology, you can get up to 25 miles of pure electric power. Charging stations can be installed at your home or accessed on the go. With all available power modes, you get up to an incredible 640 miles with a full charge and full tank of gas.

Advanced Driver Assistance Features

A series of advanced driver assistance features can be found thanks to the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 Safety System.

These features help you drive more confidently and make it easier to navigate in traffic.

Advanced Infotainment and Technology

Various technology and infotainment features help keep you and your passengers entertained on any trip. Amazon Alexa capability allows you to check the news or weather and even control your home devices from the comfort of the driver’s seat.
